I refuse to use Grok. Mostly because of the usual reasons - somehow this high profile AI model seems more disgusting than others and it is in a way impressive. But also Xai doesn’t seem to care about user experience and long term support.

Off topic. Since old.reddit is now login walled - is there an alternative frontend?

I'm not sure what is your point. It reads as defeatism to me but I'm not sure. Could you elaborate? Do you find it good or bad? What actions can be taken?

Perhaps, perhaps not. Big trackers reducing data collection is a win in my book. OpenAI is not doing ad personalization for the EU customers. There are no Flock cameras. It’s an ongoing fight for sure but it’s some fight at least.

I am once again happy that the EU is fighting practices like these via legislation. Some outcomes can be annoying, but the net result is still positive, for the consumers and their data privacy at least.

> The goal is permanence for open-source AI My instinct is to correct this to “open weight”, because when I filter huggingface by open source[1], I get only one result. Then again, this could be about long term goals so perhaps I’m wrong

“Here is your iOS app migrated to Surface Duo…” Tongue half in cheek, my point is that agents may be unreliable with fresh libraries. It looks like there are some fun edge cases too: > A reserved region can be active or inactive. For exa

About multiple messages: this can cause multiple notifications, which can be annoying or cause a sense of urgency. About self centered: would you find it self-centered, or would you instead appreciate seeing the complete message?

But that’s the point, the villain is incapable of succeeding. Their habit of perceiving everything as threat eventually leads them to their doom. Also note that grandparent comment is about both folklore and current events.

Also the mistake made by cartoon villains or mythological figures. Just leave that damned prophesied hero alone. Don’t banish them, don’t attempt to kill them while they’re young, or send them on an impossible quest. Your entitled meddling

It’s not surprising. With abrupt changes regarding tariffs, policies and AI in particular, US became increasingly unstable. Perhaps trust could be regained if the country was renamed to Lower Canada by popular vote. I’m not sure anything el

We don't know the training set so it's still not very transparent - and means giving away some control. Then again, it does look better than closed weights
